How to Prepare Brown Rice Sushi Burritos [Vegan]

For the Rice:

  1. Cook the rice according to package instructions until al dente. (If using cooked rice you may skip this step.) Add about 1 cup of water and the salt to the already cooked rice and place over low heat, covered.
  2. Stir every few minutes until the water is absorbed and the rice is a bit sticky. Remove from heat and stir in the sushi seasoning (if using) and allow it to cool completely before making sushi burritos. Cold rice is the best to work with.

For the Filling:

  1. Spread a sushi mat out on your counter or work surface (You can also use a towel or a place mat.) Take 2 sheets of nori and lay them so they overlap for about 2 inches. Wet your hands and spread about 1/2 cup of the rice onto the top sheet of nori. Sprinkle with sesame seeds as desired and layer your veggies and meat to form a line from side to side.
  2. Now slowly start rolling up the end with the rice and applying pressure as you roll. Continue until completely rolled. Wrap the roll in plastic wrap or parchment paper and allow it to set for about 10 minutes.
  3. Serve with soy sauce and any of your favorite sushi condiments.
